Abstract :
Wireless wearable systems allow new user interface components. We highlight two-TiltType, a wrist-mounted device for text I/O, and phicons, objects whose physical appearances are metaphors for their electronic capabilities. Artifacts like these can create smaller, simpler, easier wearable systems.
